EXPLANATORY
MEMORANDUM

The present
Draft Amending Budget (DAB) No 3/2013 is intended to budget the surplus
resulting from the implementation of the budget year 2012. As provided for in
the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the Union[5], under Article 18 § 3,
it is the only subject of this DAB and it has to be submitted within 15 days following the submission of the provisional accounts,
which took place at end March 2013.

1.
The implementation of the budget year 2012 shows
a surplus of EUR 1 023 276 525,93 (not including
contributions from European Free Trade Association (EFTA) and European Economic
Area (EEA)), which is therefore entered as revenue in
the 2013 budget.

The registering of the surplus can be
analysed as follows:

2012 || EFTA-EEA || European Union || Total

Revenue for the financial year || 249 594 532,00 || (*) 139 290 946 639,93 || 139 540 541 171,93

Payments against current year appropriations || -249 550 868,71 || (**) -137 488 217 904,26 || -137 737 768 772,97

Payment appropriations carried over to year N+1 || -4 893 948,90 || -930 914 134,37 || -935 808 083,27

Cancellation of unused appropriations carried over from year N-1 || 512 692,43 || 73 314 569,37 || 73 827 261,80

Difference between assigned revenue carried over from years N-1 to N and N to N+1 || || 18 271 878,07 || 18 271 878,07

Exchange differences for the year || || 59 875 477,19 || 59 875 477,19

Budget outturn 2012 || -4 337 593,18 || 1 023 276 525,93 || 1 018 938 932,75

(*) Includes
assigned revenue receipts of EUR 2 813 616 298,49.

(**) Includes
payments against assigned revenue appropriations of EUR 2 831 888 176,86.

2.
The budgeting of the surplus will diminish
accordingly the global contribution of the Member States to the financing of
the EU Budget. This global decrease by Member State will also be influenced by
the updated own resources forecast (Traditional Own Resources (TOR), Value
Added Tax (VAT) and Gross National Income (GNI)) including the updated amount
of the UK correction which will be available after the Advisory Committee on
Own Resources (ACOR) meeting in May 2013.
